Commissions
I do a limited number of commissioned pieces.
Here is a little bit about my process and how I work…
My first steps include musing about your piece, taking time to consider ideas, composition and layout. After that, I hand-draw everything, each dog, cat, and chicken... by hand. Every character is sketched and drawn onto watercolor paper. I paint each item, selecting colors that set the tone for the piece. Once the paint has dried, I photograph the art and upload it into Photoshop where I add drop shadows and digitally collage everything together into one cohesive illustration. This takes time and love.
My rates for a simple single-character illustration without a background begin at $125. If you would like a background or for multiple characters or single characters with more detail, I am happy to provide you with a personal quote. Simply email me any reference photos you may have and a detailed description of what you are looking for. Quoted prices include one 5x7 inch unmatted Giclee print. Additional prints can be purchased at a discounted rate. Since everything is hand-painted separately and digitally collaged, there is no original. I retain all copyrights to my work.
I am grateful you thought of me for something that matters this much. What a lovely compliment.
Fondly,
Rachel
